Rise above, young deniro.
The weak and ineffectual stings of minor irritants such as this are easily ignored. You soon find that left to their own devices they will obliging do all the work of proving how shallow and inconsequential they are.
Anyway, you can take satisfaction from the fact that you're only being targeted out of envy for your position as a well regarded and liked member of the community, something your inept imitator will never be.

Re: Willie Nelson takes Bob Weir's place... |
Always good to check in to Desolation Row and see the paranoid loonies, vitriolic haters, time wasters, and other assorted riff raff keeping the flame alive. I mean, who fucking cares? These guys simply look pathetic. Who cares if this poster is a troll or that one is a fraud? Kind of reminds me of the attendees at Grateful Dead concerts.
Hope all is well across the pond with you and she who must be obeyed.

Place never changes does it? Only the names...
The world rolls on unheeding and she who must be obeyed suffers me to live for her eldritch amusements.
All well with you?

Yes, thank you. Actually, I've returned to the teaching fold
as a prof. in the English Department at our local University.
Grown up clothes--yecch.

I bet your bloody good at it too. I can just see you twisting the minds of the young lads and lasses into pretzels of perplexity. Was it choice or necessity that guided your return?

Re: Willie Nelson takes Bob Weir's place... |
Hey WT - late this afternoon there was a glimmering that maybe I can manage to keep two wheels on the road and not slide into that ditch entirely. I'll try to get an email off over the weekend - really appreciated hearing from you and L. Nearly forgot how much I love you guys.

Trolls roll with trolls, I find. To be one, is to reply to one.

Re: Willie Nelson takes Bob Weir's place... |
There have certainly been instances where some would be smartass has created multiple names in order to conduct phony conversations with himself. I wouldn't go so far as to say that anyone goaded into a reply, or who thinks they can put one over on the miscreant (yes, guilty, yer honor), immediately deserves to be labelled a troll themselves. But I do agree that responses only bring fuel to the fire.

I specifically intended my comments for those who believe they might smoke-out a troll and reveal his/her true identity, or those who think they can reform the troll and those who respond with the "i feel sorry for you" rap...etc.
Obviously not you Rob. Everybody knows you are much more creative.;)

Thanks for the words of wisdom. It is certainly best to ignore, but I just can't help myself sometimes :-) I know you can relate.

Oh relate I most definitely do. My history of relating is etched indelibly into my permanent forum record for all to see. Regrets? I've had a few. But then again too few to mention. I did what I had to do and saw it through without exemption.
Yeah, old blue eyes is back.

Hah, yes indeed. The record shows you took the blows, and did it your way.

Re: Those shorts take Willie Nelson and Bob Weir's place |
Hey Mr. DeNiro, sorry if my misplaced post of 26th August started up this shit again for you. I was out of order, for which I apologise again.
Just for the craic, here are 'those shorts' in action again. They certainly do get around:

OK thanks Rob. I'm surviving, despite the re-emergence of quasi-Thatcherism (that's what it feels like anyway).
And you ?

Re: Those shorts take Willie Nelson and Bob Weir's place |
Getting by, Jackie, just getting by. I don't know what things are like in your line of work but it's been pretty bloody dodgy in mine recently. I somehow seem to keep finding one more lifeline to grab on to before I go under, but really all I want to do is get out of this fucking cold water and go lie on the beach. Not going to happen though. Just endless flailing about until the water finally closes over my head.
Wow. I'm Mr Cheery tonight, eh?
:-)

Re: Those shorts take Willie Nelson and Bob Weir's place |
When I feel that way, I break out Workingmans Dead (Worksop indeed!), some JGB or even some Elliott Smith.
It usually helps.
Funny how troubled souls like Jerry or Elliott could have the effect of making people feel much happier about things.

Re: Those shorts take Willie Nelson and Bob Weir's place |
No apologies necessary Jackie.
Wow, those shorts look even worse than they do on Bob. I wasn't around at the time, so it's extra difficult for me to imagine that style of shorts ever being considered fashionable. I guess nobody ever told Bob they went out of style, and if he didn't get too pudgy around the midsection, I suspect he would still wear them today. I recall him stating in an interview a few years ago that he doesn't wear his old shorts because they don't fit anymore.

I don't think fashion even came into it; it's not like they were ever in style that much to begin with ;0)
